The Houston Rockets will play game three of a four-game homestand when Memphis visits Toyota Center on Sunday. If you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Grizzlies, who hold the NBA’s second-best record, should be motivated and out for revenge against the rebuilding Rockets after losing exactly two weeks ago in that same building. However, if there’s a silver lining for Houston, it’s that All-Star guard and MVP candidate Ja Morant will not play on Sunday afternoon due to knee soreness.
The Rockets are likely to be quite motivated, themselves, after a late collapse Friday versus Indiana that rookie guard Jalen Green said “hurt a lot.” Green (20 points, 6 assists) and big man Christian Wood (32 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 blocks) were the statistical standouts, and each also had huge games two weeks ago in Houston’s upset over Memphis.
For the young Rockets, can lightning strike twice versus one of the NBA’s elite teams? Here’s a look at when and what to watch for.
The Grizzlies have now scored 100+ points in 22 straight games, tying the longest such streak in franchise history, which they have done 2 previous times.
Their next opponent, the Rockets, allow the most points per game of any NBA team thus season (and Grizz want revenge)
